Master Edits with Sound

Five Master Edits with Sound

Direct Sound: For our symbolism edit, we chose to use direct sound for the clips to maintain a feeling of serenity and calmness. Without any additional sound effects, the scene could capture the connection between the natural beauty of the tree to the rustling of papers.

Music: In our contrast edit, we added music to the entire clip. The two students are seen studying in a classroom. Mozart's symphonies were added to the clip to convey a studious situation. Both subjects study while classical music plays in the background.

Post Synchronization Dubbing: In our example of  the leit motif we used sound to add creepy music on top of the direct sound from the clip. The sound we dubbed in made it seem that the music was playing over the speaker.

Sound Bridge: In the example of parallelism, we used an upbeat tune to play throughout the clip to convey a feeling of happiness and cheer. The two subjects walked to the beat of the music, which enhanced the happy feeling associated with this edit. 

Music: Our example of simultaneity was a scene of two people fighting followed by a different subject walking. We decided to add the "Rocky" theme music to the fighting clip to connect the theme of a fight. The contrast between the rocky music to the direct sound of the other subject distances the two clips from each other, even though they were happening at the same time.
